COLD WAR VETERANS ASSOCIATION
P.O. Box 13042
Overland Park, KS 66282-3042
PLEASE BE SURE TO INCLUDE
evidence of your military service -- e.g., a photocopy of your DD-214 (feel free
to delete any confidential information such as your Social Security Number). If
evidence of your military service cannot be provided, please explain why.
(*If signing up as a NON-DUES-PAYING member, please so indicate.)
NOTE 1: Donations/dues are NOT tax deductible
– even though we are a federally recognized, tax-exempt veterans service
organization – because Congress has yet to fully recognize the "Cold
War." We are lobbying to have this changed so dues will be deductible.
NOTE 2: Bank Midwest administers the nonprofit banking account of the Cold War
Veterans Association.
